To better understand the technical solutions described in any embodiments of the present disclosure, we will first partially explain the measurement gap schedule when the UE performs measurements.

In one embodiment, the measurement gap may be configured by Radio Resource Control (RRC) configuration or RRC reconfiguration. The BWP switching method can be set using any of the RRC setting method, the RRC reconfiguration method, the Downlink Control Information (DCI) setting, and the timer method. In this way, when the activated Bandwidth Part (BWP) of the UE switches, if the BWP switch switches in the manner of downlink control information DCI or timer, the reference based on the measurement gap when the UE switches To be able to take measurements of the signal, the network must always assume a measurement gap and use it for measurements. However, assuming that the network always assumes a measurement gap and uses it for measurements, it will result in throughput loss to the network and the terminal.

As shown in FIG. 2, in one embodiment, the UE's activated BWP at time T0 is BWP1, and the UE does not require a measurement gap when in target measurement cell 1 and when in target measurement cell 2. A measurement gap is required when the target measurement cell 3. When the activated BWP of the UE switches to BWP2, the UE does not require a measurement gap at target measurement cell 3, but requires measurement gaps at target measurement cell 1 and target measurement cell. Thus, in practice, when the activated BWP of the UE is switched, when switching to different BWPs, whether the measurement objects corresponding to each BWP require a measurement gap or not is not necessarily the same. If the network always sets a measurement gap for each BWP, the measurement efficiency will be significantly reduced and the throughput performance of the UE will be degraded.

Those skilled in the art will understand that the technical solution of each embodiment may be implemented alone or together with any other technical solution of the embodiments of the present disclosure; The disclosed embodiments are not limited thereto.

As shown in FIG. 3, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for processing measurement gap preconfiguration, which is performed by the UE and includes step S31.
In step S31, measurement gap instruction information is received. The measurement gap indication information indicates whether the UE requires a measurement gap in the configured BWP.

In one embodiment, the base station may be a variety of types of base stations, such as a 3G base station, 4G base station, 5G base station, or other advanced base station.

In one example, the BWP configured on the UE may be a BWP that the UE can switch to when switching. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the set BWP may be BWP2.

In one embodiment, there may be one or more BWPs configured on the UE. For example, four BWPs may be set: BWP1, BWP2, BWP3, and BWP4. Here, the configured BWP may include the activated BWP before the UE performs switching, or may not include the activated BWP before the UE performs switching.

In one embodiment, the measurement gap indication information indicates whether at least the UE configures a measurement gap in the configured BWP. In this way, the embodiments of the present disclosure can inform the UE whether to configure a measurement gap in the configured BWP by the measurement gap indication information received by the UE.

In one embodiment, the measurement gap indication information is used to activate or not at least a measurement gap in a configured BWP of the UE. As such, embodiments of the present disclosure can determine which BWP's measurement gap among the BWPs configured in the UE needs to be activated and/or which measurement BWP's measurement gap indication information received by the UE. It is possible to know whether a measurement gap does not need to be activated, and thereby the measurement gap of the BWP can be activated early before switching the BWP, and the measurement efficiency can be improved.

Thus, embodiments of the present disclosure can simultaneously realize the UE configuring a measurement gap in the configured BWP and activating the measurement gap, thereby increasing the efficiency of the measurement by the UE. can be improved.

In one embodiment, the measurement gap indication information indicates whether the UE requires measurement gaps in all BWPs of configured BWPs. For example, if the BWPs configured in the UE include BWP1, BWP2, BWP3, and BWP4, this measurement gap indication information indicates whether measurement gaps are required in BWP1, BWP2, BWP3, and BWP4. In this way, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, it can be determined whether measurement gaps are required in all BWPs configured in the UE, based on the measurement gap indication information configured by the base station.

Of course, in other embodiments, the measurement gap indication information indicates whether the UE requires measurement gaps in at least some of the configured BWPs. For example, when the BWP configured in the UE includes BWP1, BWP2, BWP3, and BWP4, this measurement gap instruction information indicates whether or not a measurement gap is required at least in BWP1, or this measurement gap instruction information indicates whether measurement gaps are required at least in BWP1, BWP2, and BWP3. As described above, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the measurement gap instruction information set by the base station may be used to instruct the UE whether or not measurement gaps are required in at least some of the BWPs set in the UE.

There is no need to make a determination based on the UE, and as a result, the measurement efficiency of the UE can be improved.

Further, embodiments of the present disclosure can inform the UE whether a measurement gap is required in the BWP configured in the UE. Thereby, when the UE switches to a configured BWP, it can use or not use measurement gaps in this BWP based on the activated measurement gap indication information or the deactivated measurement gap indication information; Thereby, the measurement efficiency of measurements by the UE and the throughput of the UE can be improved.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to activate the measurement gap for the measurement target in the BWP configured in the UE, it is necessary to first configure the measurement gap for the measurement target in the BWP configured in the UE, and this As such, the embodiments of the present disclosure can first configure a measurement gap for a measurement target in BWP configured in the UE, and activate the measurement gap for this measurement target. Activation of the measurement gap of the measurement target can be realized, and the measurement efficiency of the UE can be improved.

Here, receiving the activation measurement gap indication information may be receiving activation measurement gap indication information transmitted from the base station.

Here, the activated measurement gap indication information may indicate at least one measurement target for which the UE requires a measurement gap among all or some measurement targets in the configured BWP.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for processing measurement gap preconfiguration, the method being performed by a UE, the method comprising the step of receiving deactivation measurement gap indication information, wherein the deactivation measurement gap indication information is The method may include the step of indicating at least one measurement target that does not require setting a measurement gap in the set BWP.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to deactivate the measurement gap for measurement in the BWP configured in the UE, it is necessary to first configure the measurement gap for the measurement target in the BWP configured in the UE, and this As such, the embodiments of the present disclosure can first set a measurement gap for a measurement target in BWP configured in the UE, and then deactivate the measurement gap for this measurement target. Therefore, the measurement gap of the measurement target can be deactivated, and the measurement efficiency of the UE can be improved.

Here, the deactivation measurement gap instruction information may indicate at least one measurement target for which the UE does not require a measurement gap among all measurement targets or some measurement targets in the configured BWP. .

Illustratively, there may be four BWPs: BWP1, BWP2, BWP3, and BWP4. Each of these four target objects has q measurement objects, where the i-th measurement object is represented by MO_i, and the j-th measurement object is represented by MO_j, where i and j are both is also smaller than q.

For example, the activation measurement gap instruction information may indicate a measurement target for which a measurement gap is set among the measurement targets in these four BWPs, or the deactivation measurement gap instruction information may indicate a measurement target for which a measurement gap is set among the measurement targets in these four BWPs. Among the measurement targets in the two BWPs, a measurement target for which a measurement gap is not set may be specified. For example, activation measurement gap instruction information indicates that a measurement gap is set for the i-th measurement target, and deactivation measurement gap instruction information indicates that no measurement gap is set for the j-th measurement target. give instructions.

Alternatively, the activation measurement gap instruction information activates measurement gaps to be measured in these four BWPs. The deactivation measurement instruction information deactivates the measurement gaps of the measurement targets in these four BWPs. For example, the measurement gap of the i-th measurement target is activated as activation={MO_i}. In this way, a measurement gap is required to measure the i-th measurement target. Alternatively, the measurement gap of the jth measurement target is activated as in deactivation={MO_j}. In this way, no measurement gap is required to measure the jth measurement object. Here, i, j and q are all integers greater than 0.

Of course, in the above example, each BWP does not necessarily have to have q measurement targets. The measurement targets in each BWP may be the same or different. For example, there are g measurement targets for BWP1, q measurement targets for BWP2, z measurement targets for BWP3, and q measurement targets for BWP4. Here, g, q, and z are all integers greater than or equal to I, and g, q, and z are all integers greater than or equal to j.

In embodiments of the present disclosure, the activated measurement gap indication information may indicate the measurement gap of the measurement object for which the measurement gap has been configured and/or the measurement gap of the activated measurement object. The measurement gap instruction information provided can indicate a measurement gap of a measurement target for which no measurement gap is set and/or a measurement target that is deactivated.

For example, the activated measurement gap indication information indicates at least one measurement carrier for which the UE requires a measurement gap in the configured BWP. Also, for example, the deactivation measurement gap indication information indicates at least one measurement carrier that does not require measurement gaps in the UE configured BWP.
